Words

The words that cling to our hearts unspoken
The ones that betray and leave you broken
You hold them close, but then you find
That the words you want are undefined
It's hard to find something that makes you feel
That life matters, that what you have might not be real
I used to have exactly that, but i threw it all away
I was so happy with what i had, then i led myself astray
I wanted it so much, i just needed the right word
One to describe that i'm sorry, that everything became blurred
Words can describe so much, but actions mean more
That's the truth and it's something you just cant ignore
There's so much to say still, there's so much to do
And you know that what is getting done is all for you
So you can be happy again and we can finally live
The life we always talked of, the one i always wanted to give
It's not too late, so just take your time
We can be together forever, like partners in crime
Now i don't know what to think anymore, i just want that last chance
The one that we talked of, may i have this last dance?
There are so many words that cling to our hearts unspoken
I don't want them to betray us, i don't want them to leave us broken

The Light In the Dark

Moonlight on the water, Its like the light in the dark, that's pretty much exactly what it is, there's no metaphor here, but there is a Spark, it lights up into more, it shines and it glistens, the darkness is overwhelming, but at least it listens, it can envelop you, maybe even develop you, but there's always that light that shines through, that one thing in life that everyone is waiting for, its something that you just can't ignore, it will come from the dark and you will finally see, that when you least expect it, you will be set free, its something you just cant fight, I'm talking about moonlight on the water, right?

Where am i?

Sitting and Writing

Sitting and writing can be so fun, i may not be very good, but I'm not stopping till I'm done, this may not have proper poetic form, but if you know me I'm not exactly in the norm, i could care less, sitting and writing relieves so much stress, i could sit here and talk about my life, and you wouldn't even know, all the pain and the tears, it just doesn't show, i could try to explain, but why?, i could talk of all the anger, fear, regret, and sadness, but i don't want to cry, I'm tired of bringing people down, I'm trying to get up, and I'm trying to say, that everyone has had that day, that day to be happy about, that day to look back on, the times that you smiled and the times that are gone, the times that you can still have, you just have to see, that you are a lot like me, we sit and we wait each day, for the song that our hearts will soon play, of laughter, love and tears, we just want something to wash away all our fears, to have it close and see so deep, to finally know why, we don't get much sleep, we can laugh we can smile, we can run that extra mile, we can wait and we can stare, but is that really fair? is anything? if one of us stands and puts up a fist? when there's people that cant have any of this? such high hopes such high praise, i guess some people are just locked in a phase?, i wish people were more accepting, i wish people would help, but all they can really do is let out a cold hateful yelp, some people sit there and all they can do is judge, through harsh words and insults, they wont make me budge, because remember, sitting and writing can be so fun, i may not be very good, but I'm not stopping till I'm done.

You should try it sometime.

A Lot To Say

I have a lot to say, I just don't speak.
To others, my voice is strong, but to me, it feels weak.
I have a lot to say, to then have to bite my cheek.
There's a future to be had, I've yet to reach my peak.

Words Redux

Its' been a hot minute since I wrote a poem let alone posted on here.
Here ya go. <3 Hopefully more where this came from.

Sometimes... words unspoken. redux...
Sometimes... words work wonders?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sometimes... words are better left unspoken.
Sometimes... trying too hard will leave you broken.
Sometimes... someone will lie to you, and they just won't care.
Sometimes... it feels like there is just no one there.
Sometimes... you know, none of that is the truth.
Sometimes... you just want to be locked in a booth.
Sometimes... you want to be told what's best.
Sometimes... you just don't want to have to be stressed.
Sometimes... you realize, that all you have is abuse.
Other times... you'll realize, that there is just no use.
There is no going on and there is no repair.
Just move on quietly and please..... Have no despair.
It isn't as easy as the times that you blink.
Sometimes, it isn't too easy to think.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Words don't always work, but continue to use them wisely. 
Spare your best words for those who matter most.
Speak your mind! speak up! 
Don't let any words go unspoken.

What Is Teamwork To You

This ones for you. John 

Cheers to the last straw! 
You drew it and smashed it.
You broke it and slashed it.
This is the end to your lies and your manipulation.
This is the final goodbye to the child that tried more than they should have with you.
What is teamwork to you?
when you treat your wife and son the way you do.
What is teamwork to you?
when you don't care about your own health but your wife and son do.
One more time for the psychopathic, machiavellian, narcissist in the back! 
What is teamwork to you?
when you don't give a single ounce of care into your wife and sons health? 
No need to answer with all your usual lies and slander, keep your childish mouth shut this time. 
Always wanted a son? Yeah? You had one...
Always wanted him to put his foot down right? grow up? He did.
When your son finally puts his foot down to the one person that is the root of all his mental instability.
Now that just cannot happen, right? 
It's completely unacceptable!
Unimaginable!
Absolutely outrageous!
How dare he not let you tell his mother that she's a useless human being!
How dare he not worship every damn step in your insanity fueled wake.
How dare he care about his own health.
He should be doing what you say. Right? 

Your son could have gone on, but it's just not worth his time anymore. He has no more words left for you, you've never cared to hear them. From this day forward, your sons voice will always be dead to you. 

Cheers to the last straw.... John.

Hope it was worth it. I've lost track of how much I've tried with you. I tried till it started killing me mentally and physically, I'm tired of you crying to me about something then going straight back to your nasty ways. Not my fault that you don't care to remember that your wife and son struggle with your mere presence on the daily. Ignorance is bliss, up until it isn't.

I love you Mom, with all my heart and every fiber of my being but I can love him no longer

God Complex

Life is a complex without a god.
Feel too much, risk being wrong.
Sit in silence, agree, just nod.
We wish it didn't take that long.
Feel like a slave, get smacked with a prod.
Sit down, believe that you're strong. 
We all need a break from lifes daily fraud.
Please stay seated and sing your hearts song.
I'll be here, I'll listen, I'll applaud.
Wake up to the sound of a life changing gong. 
Reality rarely really rallies a real rapture or a ripple.
Condescending criminals cornering creative cons causes us to cripple.
We're never as strong as we think.
We need a reminder from a soul not on the brink 

I'm not so sure what is at stake. 
Sleep is overrated.
Am I even awake?

Easier said than done. 
Hang in there fren.
